Relationship Leads

Every relationship has an owner.

Every firm and advisor in the Sovereign Ark network has a designated SA Lead.

The lead is the member responsible for maintaining that relationship. Others are welcome to reach out, but one person always owns it — so good introductions made at a conference or dinner never fade. For introductions or follow-up, please contact the designated Sovereign Ark lead.
